Middle Eastern style beef stew, Meat with veggies. 1 pot easy dinner.

Served up with rice and fresh warm bread, this is a stick to your ribs, easy dinner. It's perfect to warm you up on a cold winter day. This is a comfort food for Hubby, a true taste of home.

This is pretty spicy but you can season it to taste. You can add just about any veggies to it. Normally i throw what ever I have in it, bell peppers, lima beans, carrots, corn, you name it and I have probably added it to this stew one time or another.

3 large potatoes, peeled and clunked.
1 med. yellow onion, diced
1 1/2 cups fresh green beans ( or 1 can)
